Product Manager, Games

At Improbable, we believe that the next revolution in entertainment and society will come from massive virtual worlds. They will create new economies and opportunities globally, changing not just how we play, but how we work and relate to each other. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to build the next generation of technologies for online multi-user games and simulations.

At Improbable, you are surrounded by people who want to improve everything and everyone around them, and who compel you to improve yourself. We’re motivated by the fulfilment of solving hard problems to achieve something profound and transformative.

Improbable has created SpatialOS Networking: a networking solution for distributed computation that combines tools for faster iteration with a scalable simulation architecture capable of supporting a new generation of innovative multiplayer games.

In this role, you’ll be responsible for the product direction of one or more of these members of the SpatialOS Networking family. You’ll define the roadmap, grow the product and, in conjunction with our partner games, demonstrate SpatialOS Networking’s ability to empower developers in creating innovative games of unprecedented scale.

SpatialOS Networking is a close family of products, consisting of:

• The core distributed compute technology
• Our high performance networking solution with SDKs and associated bespoke engine integrations
• Common tooling such as for visualising and interacting with SpatialOS Networking simulations
• The Game Development Kit (GDK) for Unreal
• The Game Development Kit (GDK) for Unity

Areas for impact:

• Take responsibility for product planning and direction across one or more products relating to SpatialOS Networking.
• Work with customers to help them understand our product capabilities and roadmap, and ultimately see that they’re successful and happy using our technology.
• Identify and ensure alignment with customer needs, both internal and external. Use your insight to guide prioritisation and ensure we work on the right things.
• Be accountable for the tough decisions needed to define scope and sequencing.
• Build first hand familiarity with your products, then use your understanding of the domain and your creativity to suggest improvements.
• Align the roadmap of your products with overall business objectives and ensure your product represents a value-adding component of the business in its own right.
• Frame the capabilities and value propositions of your product for effective sales, and help build the commercial narrative.
• Inspire the teams you work with, keeping them motivated and clear on required outcomes.

This position is accepting candidates fully remote based in UK with occasional travel to London.

While we think the above experience could be important, we’re keen to hear from people that believe they have valuable experience to bring to the role. If you identify with the team and mission, but not all of our requirements, then please still apply!!
